Jesus Christ Superstar's 2013 tour postponed until October

The 2013 return of Andrew Lloyd Webber's arena tour of Jesus Christ Superstar, originally scheduled for March, has been postponed until later in the year.

According to joint statement from Lloyd Webber's Really Useful Group and AEG Live: "Due to circumstances beyond their control RUG and AEG are rescheduling the Jesus Christ Superstar arena tour dates originally planned for March. This is largely due to the enormous demand across the Globe with tours in Australia, Europe and USA to be announced soon."

The statement continues: "In order to avoid disappointing the thousands of fans who have already purchased tickets for the tour in March, the UK dates will be rescheduled for October and the good news is that in addition to the previously announced cities the new time period enables us to add two brand new buildings that were not available in March, the Leeds Arena and The Hydro, Glasgow."

All tickets remain valid for the rescheduled shows with refunds
available at point of purchase. New shows go on sale Friday 15
February 2013. A representative has confirmed to Whatsonstage.com that the principal cast members will return for the new dates.

The 1971 musical, which tells of the political and interpersonal
struggles of Judas Iscariot and Jesus, includes hits such as "I Don't
Know How to Love Him",
"Gethsemane" and "Superstar", and has proved one of the most popular of
the Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice collaborations.
